Closest I get to drawing in public is painting at school. I had free hours after a class, and I continued painting for a couple more hours. People from the above class came in and sat down, and I got compliments for my painting.

But I don't draw in public because I'm too embarrased. I'm not bad, I just feel awkward doing it.

Actually the other day someone approached me when I was drawing on a coffee place. This old man spoke to me for a few minutes about how he was intrigued and how he was somehow into arts.

Once I was drawing eyes (was a newb faggot and started faces with eyes) in class, and about ten people came up and told me I was awesome and how cool it looked.

I was too scared of drawing in public until I had to put up with some endless and pointless presentations at college to learn how to speak in public (I'm majoring electronic engineering)
I was so bored I took the habit of bringing a sketchbook to the lectures and draw the speakers. Eventually became accustomed. I get some compliments from time to time but I'm very novice so I laugh internally.

I was drawing in a coffee shop in my hometown three 1/2 years ago. I was drawing a portrait for my friend Devin, and a friend of mine and a pretty little girl saw me, and thought I was drawing a portrait of Obama in ski gear.

I ended up dating the pretty girl after meeting her right there and then for about 9-ish months (I don't remember). It was my first serious relationship.

Pic related, it was the portrait she saw me working on. (This was almost 4 years ago, I've progressed quite a bit since then)

Reverse story:

I was sitting on a charter bus for a trip, and the bus was full so I had to sit next to this old lady. She actually had a mini-journal with her and was sketching pictures of different people she saw. Really simple stylistic sketches, quick, sleek lines. She was quite good.

Of course, I noticed that she started drawing me too. We struck up a conversation during the trip about her seeing her family but I never broached the topic of her art, for some reason I felt I was encroaching a forbidden topic.

I'm so used to seeing young artists and deviantart shit that it generally shocks me to see very old people with artistic skill.

50 isn't that old. The woman on the bus was at least 70. I don't care about people who still take classes, my point was I was surprised to see an elderly person be so casual about her skill.

cool story mikufriend

[gravyboat No.1448917]

about four years ago, was sitting in a coffee shop working on personal projects on muh computer. Some guy sat down at the table next to me, staring at the screen until I was vaguely uncomfortable with his utter attentiveness. Finally, he tells me "I'm an artist too, a designer, actually. I'm meeting a client here in a few minutes, to discuss important business. Big stuff."

Goes on, client walks in, and every time this guy goes to say something to his client (working out a deal for a label for the client's olive oil company), he makes some remark about me. Even said, without knowing me, mind you, that I was 'his assistant, just out of jail, learning the ways of the working world, gonna be big one day if I keep my head straight and pay attention to his teachings.

Went on to try and charge the guy four grand for the label design and rights. Client scoffs, says his budget's around eight hundred for the label's design. Mr. Designer gets super huffy, finally they settle on 1600 or some such.

I almost went ahead and undercut him after the fifth remark my direction at seven hundred, rights and all. Guy was a total prick, and the portfolio he brought with him wasn't anything special.

Kinda regret not speaking up that day.

I was in the library once just doing some sketches in class wearing my tank top.

This girl kept on looking over at me seemingly interested in what I was doing. She did it again and I looked up at her and make eye contact, I could tell from the milliseconds of those bedroom eyes I caught that she was checking me out. I'm pretty tall and I work out a lot so this wasn't that out of the ordinary, I've seen it before.

So I get to work, trying not to make it obvious I start making a quick pencil sketch of her head, except I draw a giant beard on her.

I get up to walk out of the library, I walk past her, drop the sketch off and say "You should be a model"

Something similar happened to me in maths class.
I used to draw on my notes while studying at home. One day the calculus teacher wanted to see what we'd done the day before, and went to my desk. I flipped my notebook as fast as possible to the actual lesson, but he still saw the little dudes dancing around a trigonometric circle.

He just gave me a sly look.

I used to do absolutely nothing at school and my whole notebook was full of stupid doodles (dicks inclusive) and from time to time the teacher would take a look at what I have been doing and only see dicks and knights and other stuff and he would look at me disappointed. one time he took all the drawings and threw them in the garbage bin.

I draw a lot in public and its helped me meet several people. When I'm not working ( typically on an early Saturday or a late Sunday) I'll head out somewhere, get a drink and draw. I'm always amused when someone notices they're being drawn because they almost always straighten up or try to pose. I really like to draw interesting looking people...not necessarily attractive but different looking which I suppose is attractive to me. About a year ago I was at the Huntington library when a disfigured woman and her two children took at seat across from where I was eating. I started to draw a head sketch of her but was trying to be subtle as to not unintentionally offend her. They were there for about an hour and I got a really good look at her,She appeared to be partially burned around the left side of her mouth and neck as well as the right side of her orbital socket and forehead.

They stayed so long I began another of her only this time I tried to depict what she might have looked like without her injuries. Eventually she noticed me and got up from her seat to approach and ask if/what I was drawing. I was a little nervous when I showed her but the second she saw the sketches she was very taken and took my sketchbook in her hands to examine both drawings. She immediately teared up when she saw the second one and I felt like a total asshole. She told me it was beautiful and I told her she could have it.

In high school, a friend of mine had a sketch book of the same brand as his exercise book, and the teacher once grabbed his sketchbook to rant about how much we all draw in/on our exercise books (because the sketch book had doodles all over the cover) and flipped through it in front of everyone to assess the 'doodle to actual schoolwork' ratio, and was positively fuming at the fact that there was NOTHING but doodles while my pussy friend is daintily trying to explain it's not actually his exercise book.

I can do one in a few minutes and post it I suppose. I'm not really self conscious about my art because It will never reach a point where I'm happy with it. I just kind of keep drawing with the mindset that I need to keep improving and growing

[Anonymous No.1450726]

>>1450281
You should just do it anyways. It's not like someone that can't draw is going to go up to you and say it's shit. They consider anything above their skill level (generally stick figures) good, so no complaining there.
If another artists sees you drawing and is worse, it'll be the same. If they're better, they'll likely keep their mouth shut or be polite.

You have nothing to be afraid of. Just go out and do it, it's great practice.

I had a similar experiance when this weird "artsy" girl whom I sat next to in chemistry would always draw lots of cartoony things on her papers and what not. So one day I noticed she kept looking over at me and I saw she was doing a drawing of me, nothing really came out of it and im bad at finishing stories

I think it was an airhead moment. She's a smart girl, but not in any artistic sense.

She actually came up to me last Thursday and asked if I wanted to draw her some time

>that feel when I'm too self conscious to actually set up a time to draw her.

Well I could still set up a time and all. When she asked, I told her I'd be busy the next few weeks with finals and projects, and that I'd get back to her.

I actually have some idea, for my ADV Painting class final I have to do a traditional still life or a traditional portrait of another person. I could always try painting her, though I don't think she'd be up for just sitting in a chair for a few hours while I do a shit painting of her.

Should I draw that in public? Go the the ol' coffee shop and brandish my sketchbook.

Not really. Most artists seem oblivious to their own lack of skill, hence Deviantart

It's less obliviousness to a lack of skill, and more of an unwillingness to put in serious study, along with/stemming from pride from whatever incredibly slow improvement they make.

Plus, it's a bunch of 13-year-olds. They're little shits.

Way back when, I was drawing a lot of random shit. And I got taunted and made fun of and all kinds of such. Caused me to quit drawing for a period of time.

Apparently a school filled with wanna be gangbangers only cares about tattoo pictures.
